V1 Character from [[Hunter x Hunter]]. Meruem is the main antagonist of the [i]Chimera Ants[/i] arc.

[spoiler]The most powerful offspring of the [[Chimera Ant Queen]], and the King of the Chimera Ants. Meruem was initially seen as a cruel and violent leader. The Queen's intention to give birth to a perfect offspring was reflected in Meruem's mentality, with the Ant being haughty towards all. He spoke in an eloquent manner and had refined tastes for one of his species. However, as the story progresses, Meruem starts to grudgingly respect [[komugi_(hunter_x_hunter)|Komugi]], a human girl. He eventually even grows to care for her. From there on, Meruem begins to question the differences between the Ants and mankind. He battles with his identity as a half-human and half-insect, questioning the nature of violence and strength as true power. Meruem initially considers humans as nothing more than livestock to be farmed, however, through his interactions with Komugi, and after his fight against Netero, Meruem begins to see humans as incredible beings with immense potential through their tenacity for breaking their own limits.
